Samoan language week.

 Samoan Language week!!

                         Last week on week 5 was Samoan language week. So all of the Samoan bilingual class 

                           and also the other Samoan kids that were not in the bilingual class that would 

                                                             like to join went to the hall.

On Wednesday we went to the taste of Samoa in the hall and when we got to the hall I was wondering what does the taste of Samoa mean. Then I finally knew. The taste of Samoa means you can learn things about Samoa like knowing what they eat and their special things.

When we went to the taste of Samoa we had to get in 3 groups I was in group 3.Our first activity was the coco.I was very excited to see how they make coco.When we got to our table there was a tray with these light brown things. But then Sili said that it was the coco.We moved on to our next thing. It was time to peel the cooked coco and put it in the little brick and then break the coco with the stick.Then last we make it into a drink then time to drink YUMMY!!

it was really yummy, nice and sweet.

                     

When we got to our last one we went to the coconut area and when we got there I saw James and his mum  cutting the coconut inside.We sat down and watched them cutting the coconut then James asked us if we wanted a go so we said yes.Also James mum said we can eat some coconut it was really nice that I wanted to eat more and more!!

Then on Friday we had Mrs Moore's Beautiful mum coming in our class. We sat in a circle on the mat and she was talking about herself.After she talked about herself we asked questions. We asked a lot of questions it was already morning tea.So we had enough questions and went to eat.It was so fun having Mrs Moore's wonderful mum coming in our classroom. I have not seen a teacher bring in there parents but this year Mrs Moore has brought in her mum COOL!!

Now after lunch was the big Samoan language assembly it was so cool we saw the boy's haka we saw the girls dance it was really good.The things I like best was the costume Ma'aiasepi's cloths was really pretty the reason why she was wearing that was because she was the M.C for the Samoan language week assembly. It was really interesting when she was talking about Samoa.Also the other thing that was interesting was the thing around Ma'aiasepi's head that was really cool.

Then it was the end of assembly. I was so excited because we were going to eat .Guess what we were going to eat?It was chopsui and rice yea NICE. We went outside the hall and line up to get one. When I got one we went to class to go eat it. Then when we finished we took a photo with Mrs Moore and Mrs Moore's mum before she went.

It was a really fun day with Mrs Moore's mum and a really good presented assembly. The only thing that I mostly like was eating and having guests coming to our SCHOOL!!
